CHRYSLER 300 NO AIR CONDITIONING COMPRESSOR OPERATION

[@evelynnunes1191]

Exelente video me sirvió mucho para un Charger 3.5, el tipm es distinto pero tenía la misma falla, saludos desde Chihuahua México

[@SuperGeorge1221]

I want to thank you so much for the video. Had the same problem with my 300. I watched your video and an hour later my compressor is going again...Please keep up the videos they really make a difference for some people. I could not afford to put my car in the shop to fix this problem so thanks to you my kids and myself will be riding in an air-conditioned car.

[@alexanderwells2884]

@Rogelio Troy I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.

[@alexanderwells2884]

@Rogelio Troy It worked and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my ass!

[@rogeliotroy2237]

@Alexander Wells You are welcome xD

[@russbigdog7229]

I enjoyed the way you that you went step by step. You displayed the truth in trouble shooting diagnostics. Kuddos...btw...you lead me to my Chrlyser 300 a/c repair. It was in fact the blue/yellow wire under the fuse panel. Thank you so much. ..

[@pacmtl9158]

THANKS ALOT, i just did it on my car( 3.5l 300),and just like you,the wire fell off,i poked out the old wire with a flat head screwdriver,cleaned out the green corrossion,and inserted a new wire and POOF, a/c clutch engaged,i think im just missing some freon,cuz it doesnt blow out cold air yet,but thanks alot👍

[@josephhoag3422]

Working on a 05 300 right now turned out to be the same exact problem although the 05 model does have a ac relay but the same thing happened. Thanks for the vid !

[@mrmotofy]

For A/C issues on these 300's and chargers check the small fuses for A/C Clutch first. The fuse tends to be bad or the contacts for it are bad a lot. I just found one that works if you push the fuse down in more, let go and it turns off. Obviously bad contacts for the 10a A/c clutch fuse.

[@robgarrity1865]

James please tell me how I can send you a case of beer. I have been FIGHTING this issues for a few YEARS with no success. Funny enough I actually watched your video once before and somehow missed trying the fix. It was 100% a corroded wire and it even broke off in my hand like in your video. I clipped off a TPIM wire connectors at the local junk yard when I purchased what I thought could be the issue ( the actual TIPM). I popped out the old corroded one, spliced in the new one, reconnected the connector, started the car and POOF.. the a/c clutch engaged and I had cold air.... Thank You SOOOOOOOOOOO Much for your video, it saved us a lot of money and time. Rob

[@jamesdanner7850]

Awesome. I like those stories. Glad to help

[@baxrok2.]

Sweet diagnosis and fix Danner. Thanks for showing all of us how a pro does it! BTW, you may be able to use the soldering iron to shrink the tubing. I use the side ports of the iron since they exhaust the heat from the tip. Works pretty good.

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Baxrok2 I've done that. Never thought of the ports on the butane one tho. Should have cause I've been burnt by it .. ha

James Danner this guy right here Javier is a great sub to have , solid dude . Slightly crazy but most are 😁

[@jamesdanner7850]

+New Level Auto so he'll fit right in

[@alexgonzalez614]

James Danner Anybody had any problems with this code and how to fix it? u0159 2006 300c srt8 Airbags, parking assist, tire sensor and the climate controls stopped working. All it says is it lost communication with the hvac I’m lost. All the fuses show good I’ve replaced every relay and fuse and still nothing. I can’t find anything on this kind of problem

[@ВладимирПобережец-б4я]

Спасибо тебе американский друг. Помог ты мне очень сильно. Видно это проблема этих автомобилей, Сделал все так же.😉👍

[@PineHollowAutoDiagnostics]

James, I love the "hillbilly wire stripper / heat gun" combination tool. Where can you buy one? xD

[@MaicSalazarDiagnostics]

Hi James, good repair!

[@naushadali95]

great job sir I like your videos

[@gavin4ford]

Thanks for the video. Found that same wire corroded on my 2006.

[@jamesdanner7850]

Yep. Thanks

[@cardoc2477]

awesome and logical diagnoses. Thank you for the information and the video.

[@prestonbyrd2670]

Do you think it could be the same thing on a 2012? Thank you kindly

[@froylanmiranda7362]

Hello, wondering if you have to evacuate the ac system prior to replacing the ac pressure transducer sensor on 07 Chrysler 300 2.7

[@sonsautomotive]

once again ....awesome video

[@wysetech2000]

Well done, James.

[@biggame2175]

Would this cause the car to overheat?

[@SmittySmithsonite]

The green crusties strike again! Nice find.

[@rhkips]

Nicely done! I worry about that compressor; I don't think it's long for this world...

[@ozzstars_cars]

Remember when cig lighters were used at rock concerts? Now we use them for shrinking heat wrap. What's the world coming too? haha Nice fix James, ooops I mean Danner.

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Ozzstar thanks. Yea. The last concert I was at everyone used cell phones. Ha

[@AP9311]

great diagnosis, James! I learned a few things there! awesome vid. ;)

[@glenharper3136]

Nice one James.

[@motownlee3765]

Thank you, this resolved my issue.

[@EXOVCDS]

Nice process of elimination to find the cause! I don't see / get a lot of electrical stuff at work... when I do, I tend to freak myself out. =(

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Thomas EXOVCDS I get over loaded with it sometimes. I wouldn't say I freak out but I do worry about going down the wrong path for too long. Especially when u need to take alot of stuff apart just for testing purposes

[@darkphoenix4441]

I think this might be my issue, my ac compressor is not turning, I had it replaced and the same thing is happening "NADA" just warm air I drive a 08 Dodge Charger 2.7

[@Rakki_Haitatsu]

Thanks so much man for posting this video! I had the same exact issue, followed your instructions and its FIXED! Liked & Subscribed.

[@jeffcole1914]

Good job that’s the thing that make a mechanic one the fixes not always replaces 🤓

[@mikepagan6300]

Nice work.

[@MississippiTony]

My 2019 chrysler 300s not getting fire to compressor wires to run compressor. All fuses look good and swap relay but still no power. What can be the issue?

[@MississippiTony]

I checked fuses under the hood and in the trunk

[@russelldavid6724]

Hello Mr Danner,You and your Brother Paul,put out some awesome automotive videos, Definately 1 of the best Techs Ive ever seen,very cool. Im just curious though,is that your very own shop,cause your shop is huge,Looks like you guys have mabey a 10 bay shop or so,LOL ??????

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Russell David thanks. No I don't own it. Wish I did. I'd probably put cameras everywhere

[@MrEnixa]

[@beardsbucks2365]

I have a 2005 c and my a/c isn’t working what fuse would it be

[@carlosbanegas7577]

thank you for help me

[@mikelopez8109]

Thank you helped me alot

[@dalltex]

Nice work Danner! After the repair I was under the assumption that it's good to sit in the car for a while just in case it it trips back off :)

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Dall Tex yes! especially on hot days, an extended test drive or idle period may be necessary. Ha

[@chrisyaritz2180]

Absolutely great video 👍 had the exact same wire broke of in my TIPM. So I got that to fix...but sadly I'm not getting the ground signal to that wire with the AC on...freon good, clutch is good(I can manually start the compressor by grounding out that pin on the back of the plug) So now I'm at a loss... I'm not sure if it's the power control module or the actual head unit that's not getting the signal to the TIPM.

[@tubetime39]

It was a great video. Watch it again and you shouldn't have any trouble fixing it. good luck

[@chrisyaritz2180]

@@tubetime39 Actually fixed it last year. There was a corroded wire on the bottom of the fuse box in the engine compartment.

[@JoelAutomotiveInaction]

what model number is the snap on ligth , you are using??

[@jamesdanner7850]

+Joel Automotive In action ECARB042

[@JoelAutomotiveInaction]

James Danner thank you looks nice

[@bentinhalf]

@james tanner i dont know what the chances of us having the same issue are but you saved me some time today. Thanks for the video. PS leave the tool reviews to a different video.

[@DylanRabier]

Great video man. That compressor sounds bad. More work to come 😉

[@Wrenchlife604]

good diagnosis

[@jamesl197999]

(0.18) lbs was there any leaks? What's your preferred method for checking for leaks, nitrogen and soapy water, dye, leak detector. Nice video keep up the good work.

[@jamesdanner7850]

+James L another shop was in there before me and the customers note said it could be empty. So if there is anything in it, I usually do the dye thing and ask customer to return for a black light check. I usually sniff the vents with the detector tho. Even with .18 lbs in it there was probably 50 lbs or so of static pressure. Alot of times a full charge could last the season and some elect to just charge it every spring. If there is zero pressure, I'll pull a vacuum to see if it holds at all. If so, I'll still charge it with dye and look for the leak that day. They usually show up quick. If it doesn't hold vacuum, I have a spare low side hose that I blow shop air into and do the hiss or tire leak seek bubble check.

[@R.E.HILL_]

nice one, Danner.

[@NCPDFSB]

happy fathers day JD..... to a man who fathers many!

[@juanrodriguez-ry6yt]

here in the sunshine state we only see problems like these in snowbird cars

[@ryanreynolds7771]

I own a Chrysler Crossfire which does exact same thing but since it is built by Mercedes I am afraid to mess with it. The compressor does not engage but it is full or Freon . I wish I had someone to look at it . No mechanic wants to work on this car .We as Crossfire owners have no supports for these cars any longer The forums don't even have a fix for the Key or Skreem and God forbid you loose a key or your Skreem security module goes out your screwed . I can not even buy a replacement key fob and when you could buy them they sell for $600 and you must order it from Chrysler or a few specialty key places with no ETA and no refund because the key is vin related it is scary to not have a replacement key because they have transponders in the key fob no one will remake no locksmith will touch it. Just want to let anyone know interested in a Crossfire do your research first . I love my Crossfire but no one can fix the key issue treat your one key like the crown jewels . If you loose your one key you will own a very cool looking boat anchor .

[@kevingallich5557]

Nice vid. Love that light just wished they made the magnets stronger in their lights. They have def upped their game on all there lights though.

[@michaelszweda]

great vid as always can you give any advice I just got a four channel lab scope to do some tough diag problems thanks mike florida

[@billyr9840]

Nice !

Nice .!

[@LakeNipissing]

Pause at 15:37 and look at the terminals in the connector with the red/white wires. They are green. Chrysler should be ashamed for using unsealed connectors (IN THE 21ST CENTURY), which are exposed to the elements. These 300-series cars are an electrical disaster. I have done electrical repairs for three co-workers with this series of car, and found similar problems, with wires green and broken off. (we are not working in automotive repair industry) If you own one of these cars, FLOOD all of the electrical connectors with ACF-50 to reverse the green crusties, and curtail future problems.

[@jamesdanner7850]

+LakeNipissing thanks. Don't know about that acf50. I gotta look into that

[@LakeNipissing]

Check out their website. It is essentially a mil-spec aviation multi-metal corrosion inhibitor which is harmless to electronic components, and not flammable or toxic. It is _intended_ to be applied to PC boards and connectors. We have been using it for more than 20 years in industrial/chemical environment with 100% success, and I use it at home on all automotive electronics, wiring, connectors, and potentiometers.

[@kingdavid4u1588]

Your car engine sounds like that tho bc your timing is off a little. Just wanted to let you know. I am a pro at changing and replace water pump n timing chain on these engines. When the timing goes off, it kinda retards the engine and the knock sensor also retards the engine makes it sound like a diesel engine when running. the timing chain just needs replaced but most likely it's actually the timing chain tensioner that needs replaced most likely m they go bad very quickly sometimes. Also your timing can be off completely and your car will still run. It's a non interference engine. So it won't damage your engine which is a good thing. But yea as for my ac and the bad blue/Yellow wire. I just pushed a new wire in and twisted the broken wire to that new wire I pushed in and that solved all my problems.

[@AaronKraftCreative]

The Chrysler 300 is a non-interference engine? Are you totally sure about that?

[@bkbigtone2866]

Jeebus! Where are you located. I believe Im having a similar issue.

[@throttlebottle5906]

best solution, replace car :))
